• ATTENDANCE/LATENESS

Absence from SchoolIf for any reason a child is absent due to illness or accident parents/carers are asked to notify the school by telephone on the first day of absence by 9:30am. When the child returns to school a letter explaining the absence must be sent in. The school currently administers a first day calling system and the families of all children who are absent without a reason will be contacted... Read more...

If a child has a dental or medical appointment parents are requested to inform the school well in advance and forward a copy of the appointment card/letter to the school. If the appointment takes place during the day, parents usually call in to the school office and meet their child in the school entrance hall. Children are not allowed to leave the school unescorted at any time during the school day.

LatenessPlease make every effort to get your child to school on time. A pupil arriving late can disrupt not only his or her continuity of learning but also that of others in the class. Should your child be late for whatever reasons please use the main entrance to school and report to the School Office.

School Attendance RecordsSchools maintain attendance records in relation to all pupils and are required to submit an annual return in relation to any unauthorised absences. These figures are sent to the Local Education Authority for statistical purposes and these in turn are forwarded to the Department of Education.

You can see the school's status via LGFL's Open Check service, which provides parents and pupils with convenient methods for checking whether a school is open, re-opening, or closed on a given date: http://map.lgfl.org.uk/opencheck/

The welfare of our children is of paramount importance. We operate a system in school called Student and Family Support Systems or SAFSS as it is known. The system provides a holistic approach to supporting children, the idea being to provide clear, responsive and targeted support to children and families. If a child is unsettled or unhappy we would invite the parents into school to discuss the matter. If a child has an accident in school or is unwell, parents are notified as soon as possible.

How much does it cost?Thanks to government subsidies, school milk is free for all under-fives and is subsided at around £15 a term for children aged five or older.

How do I register my child?If your child is under 5:
1) Go to www.coolmilk.com or pick up a form from school.
2) Just register by a Tuesday for your child's free milk to start the following week.
3) Free milk will continue until the Friday before your child's fifth birthday. You will receive a payment request three weeks before this time - if you wish for your child to continue to receive school milk simply make a payment.

If you child is over 5:
1) Go to www.coolmilk.com or pick up a form from school.
2) Pay Cool Milk online, over the phone, at a local PayPoint or by cheque in instalments to suit you. If registering online you can pay straight away, if using a registration form you will need to wait to receive a payment request.
